History

Early history

In 1885, the Milwaukee State Normal School opened for classes at 18th and Wells in downtown Milwaukee. Over the next 42 years, the Milwaukee State Normal School saw 7 different presidents, the addition of music and liberal arts programs and rapid growth from an initial enrollment of 46. In 1909, the Milwaukee State Normal School moved from downtown to the current location near the lakefront when a new building, now Mitchell Hall, was completed. In 1927, the Milwaukee State Normal School changed its name to the Wisconsin State Teacher’s College in an effort by the State Normal School Regents to refocus on the instruction of teachers. The college became one of the nation's top teacher's training college in the 1940s. In 1951, the Legislature empowered all state colleges to offer liberal arts programs. The Wisconsin State Teacher’s College consequently became Wisconsin State College of Milwaukee, which became part of the then University of Wisconsin 5 years later.

University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee

University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee was founded with the belief that Milwaukee needed a great public university to become a great city.Fact|date=April 2008 In 1955, the Wisconsin state legislature passed a measure to create a large public university that offers graduate programs in Wisconsin's largest city. The current University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee was established in 1956, as a result of the merger between the old University of Wisconsin and the Wisconsin State College of Milwaukee (WSCM). The new university consisted of the WSCM campus near the lakefront and the University of Wisconsin extension at downtown Milwaukee. The first commencement of the new University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee was held on June 16, 1957. On June 13, 1958, socialist mayor Frank P. Zeidler was the first person to receive an honorary doctorate from the university. In 1988, UW System designated eight Centers of Excellence at UWM. In 1994, UWM was designated as a Research II University (now a Doctoral/Research University-Extensive) by the Carnegie Foundation. [cite book| title =University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Commencement Program, distributed at each semester's commencement ceremony|location = Milwaukee, WI ]

In the 50 years since adding the Milwaukee campus to the UW System, UWM has expanded to 12 schools and colleges and now offers 84 undergraduate programs, 48 graduate programs and 22 doctoral degrees, with a university-wide focus on academic research, teaching and community service. In 2005, UW-Milwaukee surpassed UW-Madison in the number of Wisconsin resident undergraduate students as well as graduate students and became the university with the largest enrollment of Wisconsin residents.

Campus

The 93 acre UWM campus is located in a pleasant residential area on Milwaukee’s upper East Side. It is considered one of the safest campuses in Wisconsin [ [http://uwmpanthers.cstv.com/school-bio/wiml-about-us.html On Campus] , University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Retrieved on March 6, 2007. ] [ [http://www4.uwm.edu/future_students/parents/uwm_right_fit/index.cfm Information for future students] , University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Retrieved on March 6, 2007. ] The campus is just five blocks from the shoreline of Lake Michigan, and is less than a ten-minute drive from downtown Milwaukee. Several Milwaukee County Transit System bus routes provide the campus with easy access to public transportation in Milwaukee. The overall campus is physically shaped like an "L," and is divided into central, west and north quads.

Central Quad

The central north of the Central Quad is the UWM Golda Meir Library, a major library of the country. The library consists of three parts: the West Wing, East Wing and the conference center on the top. The West Wing and the East Wing were completed in 1967 and 1974 separately. The two structures are joined by passageways in the basement and on the second and third floors. The northern extensions of the East and West Wings and a fourth floor conference center facility were completed in 1987. In 1979, the Library was named for Golda Meir, the fourth Prime Minister of Israel, who attended Milwaukee State Normal School, a UWM predecessor institution.

The central south of the Central Quad is the UWM Union, a center for student activities.In the Summer of 2008 the union provided some changes for students. The computer lounge added 50 computers, new furniture, flooring, and is now open whenever the union is. [UWM Post volume 53 issue one Sept.2 2008] Golda Meir Library on the north and the UWM Union on the south are connected by the Ernest Spaights Plaza. Overtowering the Ernest Spaights Plaza on the west side is Bolton Hall which houses the Departments of Sociology, Anthropology, Political Science, Economics, Urban Studies, and Geography.

West of Bolton Hall is Lubar Hall, home of Sheldon B. Lubar School of Business. This four-story facility consists of convert|150000|sqft|m2 of classroom, computer labs and office space and can accommodate 2,000 students in its instructional facilities at one time. Originally constructed in 1995 as the Business Administration Building, it was renamed in 2006, Lubar Hall in honor of Sheldon B. Lubar, a prominent Milwaukee businessman, civic leader and philanthropist. Lubar is founder and chairman of Lubar & Company, Inc., a private investment firm. His commitment to UWM and higher education spans more than three decades including service as a past president of the University of Wisconsin System Board of Regents. Lubar's distinguished career of public service also includes his work as Assistant Secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and Commissioner of the Federal Housing Administration. The building's original automated light and temperature controls featured a system called The Lighting Showcase by the Wisconsin Electric Power Company. It was designed to provide maximum energy efficiency for the most highly utilized academic building on the UWM campus. In addition to providing nearly 200 offices, there are three lecture halls, with a total of 785 seats; seven arc-shaped classrooms; 10 U-shaped classrooms; an Executive MBA classroom; three computer labs; and two levels of underground parking.

On the east side of the Ernest Spaights Plaza are the Music Building, the Theatre building and Mellencamp Hall. Main buildings on the east side of the central quad include Mitchell Hall, sometimes known as "Old Main," which was the home of the original Milwaukee State Teachers College; Garland and Pearse Halls (which formerly housed Milwaukee-Downer Seminary); Curtin Hall; etc.

North Quad

The north side of the North Quad contains the Downer Woods, a wooded area and conservation center. On the west side of North Quad are the Sandburg Residence Halls, a complex comprising four high-rise dormitories. Sandburg Residence Hall houses about 2,700 students.

In the central part of North Quad, there are the school's indoor sports facilities the Klotsche Center and its new addition the Pavilion. Next to the indoor sports facilities is Chapman Hall and the 11-story Enderis Hall, which houses the College of Health Science, School of Education, School of Information Studies, and the Helen Bader School of Social Welfare.

The east side of the North Quad is a group of old red buildings, including Holton Hall, Merrill Hall, Johnston Hall, Sabin Hall, etc. These old buildings were acquired by the University in the Milwaukee-Downer College campus purchase.

West Quad

The West Quad is the location for the College of Engineering and Applied Science, the College of Nursing, the School of Architecture and Urban Planning, and the natural science departments. The College of Engineering and Applied Science is housed in the EMS building. The Physics Building is to the south, and the Chemistry Building and Lapham Hall (housing the Biology and Geosciences Departments) are to the east. Cunningham Hall on the northwest side houses the College of Nursing.

The award winning Architecture and Urban Planning Building on the east side of the West Quad was completed in 1993. With more than convert|143000|sqft|m2, it is one of the largest school of architecture buildings built in the U.S. in the last 40 years. The exterior of the L-shaped building has brick walls accented by metal panels and large windows. Full glass walls facing onto the central courtyard afford a view of that area from almost every room in the building. Inside, the air ducts, light fixtures and structural system have been left exposed, providing a unique architectural teaching environment. The building includes student design studios, classrooms, a lecture hall, exhibition areas, computer labs, offices, a media and photography center, and research centers.

Surrounded by the buildings in the West Quad is Engelmann Field, home to the Milwaukee Panthers men's and women's soccer teams.
